BEVER-AGE SHAKER.

Application filed December 21, 19%.

lily invention has reference more particularly to devices which arecommonly known as cocktail shakers, and are designed tor mining andcooling beverages.

The principal objects oi: my invention are to provide a convenientdevice tor mixing and` cooling beverages, wherein the beverage isseparater. :troni the ice or other cooling` medium so that the beverageis not diluted or otherwise impaired or ce 'aininited by direct contacttheretvitl'i; eiiectively seal both oi? the compartments; to render allthe parts readily accessible for thorough cleaning; and in general? toprovide a simple and erective mixer or shaker of this character tvhereinthe beverage inay be readily mixed and cooled and poured out Withoutcoming in contact with the ice or other cooling inediui'n.

On the drawings:

Fig. 1 is a vertical sectional view or a cocktail shaker embodying myimprovements;

Fig. 2 a side view of the main portion thereof;

3 a side view ot the cap; and

Fig. l a similar view or the cover of the cocktail shaker.

Referring to the drawings, the reference numeral 1 indicates the mainreceptacle which is in the torni or". a truncated cone, and has atubular shell or cylinder 2 therein, which is pe 1manently secured tothe bottoni of the receptacle 1 by soldering as indicated at 3, or inany other'suitable manner, said cylinder being spaced from the vrall ofthe receptacle l. so as to form an annular chainber 4 between thereceptacle 1 and the shell The shell Q projects upwardly above thereceptacle 1 as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and preferably has the upper endtapered slightlv indicated at- 5 so as to be snugly d by thecorrespondingly tapered neck of the cover 7. At the loiver edge thecover Tis formed with an annular iiange 8 which is flared slightly so asto effect a Hedging engagement with the tapered portion Q at the upperend ot the receptacle 1. The arrangement of the neck 6 or" the cover andflange 8, and the taper or the interiittfng parts is such that when thecover 7 i pressed in position, a tight lit is edeeted eeithe neek 6 ofthe cover 7 and the Serial llo. 631,908.

tapered upper end of the cylinder 2 and also betwee the flange 8 and theupper portion 9 or the receptacle 1.

jr cap l0 having an annular wall tapered to lit snugly against theexterior of the neck (i has a gasket 11 therein to engage the upper feoit the neck and also the upper edge ot ered portion 5 of the cylinder2, the being extended upwardly to a position substantially flush withthe upper edge of -e neck rhis cap 10 therefore, when aeed in position7not only seals the upper of the cylinder 2 but also serves at the e timeby means or the gasket 11, to add ionally seal the joint betiveen theneck 6 or trie cover 7 and the tapered upper end 5 ot the cylinder 2.

ln practice the chamber l contains the ice or other cooling medium andthe cylinder 9. the beverage which is to be mixed and cooled, anditivill be thus seen that the beverage is entirely separated from theice or other cooling medium. rEhe ice is placed in the compartment 4 andthe cover 7 placed in position so as to seal the connection between theupper edge ot the receptacle 1 and the loiver edge of the cover 7, andthe neck 6 at the saine time seats against the upper end of the cylinder2 so that the ice chamber is thoroughly closed. The beverage is thenpoured into the upper end of the cylinder 2 and the cap 10 applied7 andby shaking the device the beverage is thoroughly mixed and cooled.

After the beverage has been sufficiently mined and cooled, the cap 10 isremoved and the beverage poured from the cylinder 2, the ice and Waterin the chamber 4 being sealed therein by the fitting of the joints sothat it does not discharge as the beverage is poured out. N

lt is noted that the tapered upper end portion of the cylinder or innerliquid ieceptaele 2 and the tapered neck ot the cover 7 proiecty to aconsiderable entent above the inain body of the cover and 'forni ineffect a suitable pouring spout for the liquid receptacle.

lllliile l have shown and described my invention in a preferred forni, Iam aware that various changes and inodilications may be inade Withoutdeparting from the principles of my invention, the scope of which is tobe dctern'iined by theappended claim.

I claim as my invention: i n A beverage shaker comprising' an outer ice'receptacle having` an upwardly tapering of the ice receptacle, a slipcover of inverted '10 cup shape having ka flaring rim snugly tting theVouter surface of the taperingrrim of theice receptacle, and said coverhaving a tapering neck projecting from its upper end and :snugly fittingthe outer Asurface of the tapering upper end portion of the beveragereceptacle andV forming therewith a pouring spout for the beveragereceptacle, and a closure cap for the latter fitting over said Ytaperingneck, substantially as described.
